Struggling to live up to ideals that you think are expected of you by your peers puts a real weight on you, but there’s freedom in humility.

15. . No Matter how beautiful your outer world looks, it’s what’s on the inside that’s important. And if your inner world is messy and unhealthy, nothing that you get on the outside will ever make you happy. On the other hand, if your inner world is healthy and complete, the simplest and the most basic of things in your outer world will fill your heart and soul. The greatest treasures of life truly are the inner ones.

16. Sit down sometime and ask your self about you Dive within & ask yourself - how you see yourself, what your inner beauties are, what your inner strengths are, what those gifts and abilities are that you like to bring forth, that you like to see shine for others. Be encouraged by yourself. “ The person who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens”.
